Slowness on the Site

We've been seeing significant, unexpected traffic coming from a few different sources over the last few days and, unfortunately, the site is not equipped to handle such a spike in traffic right now. So many people may be experiencing slowness on the site right now. We expect this to last for the next day or so.

We've been aware that this might occur for some time now and have been preparing for it. Unfortunately it looks like our preparations were not implemented quite in time. I hope that we will be able to stabilize the site and equip it to handle such traffic spikes in the coming weeks, but it may be a bit further out than that.

In the meantime please accept my apologies for any slowness you encounter. It is our absolute highest priority to deal with it as soon as possible.
